"Dear Future Student & Pupil,
My name is Mr. Velting and I am excited to get to know you and help you achieve success in whatever area of study you choose. It is an honor to love what I do and have a sense that I am good at it. History and Social Studies are genuinely exciting to me, and that is balanced by the satisfaction of knowing I’ve passed that interest on in measurable ways. It is a rewarding challenge to make Social Studies come alive for today’s students and to engage them in a curious and positive learning environment that meets their needs both developmentally and creatively.
I use everything, from my own growing experience (and the wisdom of others) to humor and technology, in order to reach my students and help them succeed. I am proficient in all areas of Social Studies and have extensive years tutoring and teaching. I have taught both middle school and high school classes and can adjust my teaching to the needs of any willing learner!
I look forward to meeting you,
Mr. Velting" less...
